Sloppy Old Dad Duan Changsheng, Sky Screen Descends

Douluo Continent, Spirit City.

"Old Duan, you're hiding here drinking again! Hurry up and come back with me!"

Wang Yuyan, dressed in simple attire, with snow-white skin, long hair reaching her waist, a proud figure, and a peerless face, rushed into the tavern and grabbed the disheveled man by the ear.

The patrons in the tavern were already used to this scene, as it played out almost every day.

"Yuyan, that hurts!"

"Can't you be a little more gentle?"

"I am your father!"

"What kind of daughter bosses her own father around like this?"

"You might not care about your dignity, but I do!"

The disheveled man complained incessantly, but he could only let himself be dragged out of the tavern by his ear.

"So you still remember that I'm your daughter!"

"All you do is drink every day; can't you show some concern for my situation?"

"I was bullied by that wicked woman Hu Liena today, and you didn't even ask!"

Wang Yuyan returned home and slumped over the table, feeling aggrieved.

Her father was named Duan Changsheng, a scruffy man who lacked any sense of seriousness.

Every day, besides drinking, he was either chasing women or neglecting his duties.

She had asked her father before why their surnames were different, and if she had been picked up off the street!

Her father said she took her mother's surname to commemorate her late mother.

"What? Someone bullied you?"

"Just watch as your old man peels her skin off!"

"Daring to bully my daughter, I'll swallow her whole!"

Duan Changsheng sobered up instantly, fuming with rage as he prepared to take revenge for his daughter.

"Dad, don't be impulsive!"

"Hu Liena is the Pope's disciple and the Saintess of Spirit Hall; she has both power and status."

"You're just an ordinary person, what are you risking your life for?"

Seeing the look of fury on his face, Wang Yuyan felt a warmth in her heart, and her grievances instantly diminished significantly.

Although her father was usually unserious, he still cared for her quite a bit when it mattered.

Duan Changsheng widened his eyes and gritted his teeth, saying, "So what if she's a Saintess? Daring to bully my daughter is unacceptable!"

"Alright, it was just a small matter, and I'm not angry anymore."

"You should just get some rest; I'll cook for you, how about that?"

Wang Yuyan was amused by his expression.

Her father really did love her!

"Uh, now that you mention it, I am indeed hungry."

"Hurry up and cook; I want meat!"

Hearing the word "food," Duan Changsheng's eyes lit up. He patted his belly, sat down, unhooked the wine gourd from his waist, and took a deep gulp.

It was as if nothing that had just happened had ever occurred.

"Just wait, I'll go make you some twice-cooked pork!"

Wang Yuyan smiled helplessly and turned to go cook.

She knew her father too well; he was usually just putting on a show.

He might sound fierce, but in reality, he didn't have the ability to back it up.

But that spark of concern he showed for her was already enough.

"Alright, it sure is nice to have a thoughtful little cotton-padded jacket."

Duan Changsheng glanced at his daughter's retreating back, a flicker of cold light flashing through his muddled eyes.

Daring to bully his daughter—he'd beat her until her backside was black and blue!

Boom!

At some unknown moment, a violent roar echoed throughout the entire Douluo Continent.

A powerful force suddenly descended from the high heavens, shaking the hearts of all.

Duan Changsheng and Wang Yuyan, who had been cooking, stepped out of the room and looked up at the golden light flickering in the sky.

At this moment, every living creature on the Douluo Continent had also discovered the anomaly in the heavens.

Some said a divine miracle had descended, others said it was a sign of ascension, and that someone had become a god.

No matter what was said, it was almost entirely interpreted as a sign of great fortune.

Only Duan Changsheng felt deeply suspicious, sensing that this matter was far from simple.

He could perceive a power within the golden light that far surpassed that of any god.

Having lived on the Douluo Continent for tens of thousands of years, this was the first time he had encountered such a phenomenon.

When things go against the norm, there must be a demon at work!

There was definitely something fishy going on here!

"Daddy, look quickly! It's changing again. What a beautiful scroll, it's so gorgeous!"

Just then, the golden light gradually evolved into a beautiful scroll.

Seeing this, Duan Changsheng furrowed his brows.

Before he could figure out what it was, characters appeared on the scroll, and a deafening, majestic voice boomed from the high heavens.

[Sky Screen: Love Saint Ranking.]

[This ranking is decreed by the Heavenly Dao. Based on emotional experiences, it shall tally the ten great love saints of the Douluo Continent.]

[The top of the list shall receive a million-year soul bone; the top three shall receive hundred-thousand-year soul bones; the top ten shall receive ten-thousand-year soul bones.]

The deep, majestic voice vibrated into the ears of every living creature on the Douluo Continent, instantly stirring up a massive uproar.

The top of the list could actually obtain a million-year soul bone!

That was a million-year soul bone—one couldn't find even a single one across the entire Douluo Continent.

Whoever obtained it would be invincible!

"A Love Saint Ranking decreed by the Heavenly Dao? Interesting!"

"My deep affection for Duan Lang is unique throughout the ages; I should be able to make the top three!"

Sitting on the Pope's throne, Bibi Dong's face was filled with deep longing.

Even though she had suffered all kinds of humiliation within Spirit Hall, her heart had always belonged to Duan Lang alone.

"Love Saint Ranking? What kind of list is this!"

"Brother Duan, I have never been able to forget you. Xixi misses you!"

Far away on Sea God Island, Bo Saixi was captivated by the 'Love Saint Ranking.'

The aura radiating from those three words made her think once again of Brother Duan, with whom she had shared years of deep affection.

If Heaven gave her another chance, she would rather give up her position as the High Priest of Sea God Island just to run away with Brother Duan and wander the ends of the earth!

Tang Yuehua, the mistress of the Moon Pavilion, looked up at the Sky Screen and scoffed coldly, "Heh, what Love Saint Ranking? Even if I make the list, what use is it?"

"My Brother Changsheng still hasn't returned!"

She had hidden this love deep within her heart, yet who would have thought this so-called 'Love Saint Ranking' would stir up years of yearning.

"Brother Sheng, where on earth are you!"

"I hope I can make the list so you can see my name!"

"Your Longlong has always been waiting for you!"

In a quiet, secluded courtyard, Liu Erlong held a bouquet of forget-me-nots, tears of deep affection streaming down her face.

At that moment, a dashing, heroic figure flashed through her mind.

"Xiao Wu, look, is this Love Saint Ranking real?"

"If it is, I will definitely be on it, because in my heart, you are my only one!"

Tang San, training on the Shrek Academy grounds, gazed at Xiao Wu with deep affection.

It was as if the Sky Screen in the high heavens was a witness to their love.

Oscar, standing to the side, couldn't help but retort, "San, what if you don't make the list? Doesn't that mean you don't love Xiao Wu?"

Tang San was furious. He glared fiercely at Oscar and said resentfully, "Little Ao, go to hell! If you dare to undermine the most sincere love between Xiao Wu and me again, I'll lose my temper with you!"

"Alright, San will definitely make the list. I can vouch for his feelings for Xiao Wu."

"Heh, who knows, I might even make it to the top of the list and get that million-year soul bone."

"Erlong, Dong'er, my feelings for you both are deep and profound. Once you see me on the list, you will surely be moved!"

Yu Xiaogang strolled over, looking utterly infatuated.

He had already imagined himself obtaining the million-year soul bone, appearing before Liu Erlong and Bibi Dong, and holding both goddesses in his arms.

Fatty Ma Hongjun couldn't stand the sight of Yu Xiaogang's mouth and couldn't help but tease, "Grandmaster, you're really full of it. As a 'love saint,' how could you possibly love two people at once? You definitely won't be on the list!"

Yu Xiaogang was displeased and glared at him angrily, "Go, go, go! What do you, a little brat, know about love?"

"The term 'Love Saint' lies in true emotion, not the number of partners."

"You don't know a damn thing, so stop making random judgments!"

"Go find somewhere cool to stay; this Love Saint Ranking has nothing to do with you!"

Tang San and Xiao Wu kept their eyes fixed on the Sky Screen, hoping to validate the love between them.
